JWillia2,

thanks for all the reply's... Yes it does smoke while it was turning over today... it just wont fire off... lots of white smoke. it wouldnt start today but my 5400 fired first lick.... it was only 35 today... I live in southwest VA... do you think the check valve would help that much???

Does the tractor have closed center hydraulics? If so, a bad de-stroker valve might cause the problem that you describe. The de-stroker valve is designed to prevent the hydraulic pump from trying to build pressure while cranking.

On the older new generation tractors (10 and 20 series) you can work around this on a cold morning by turning the steering wheel back and forth while cranking. Might be worth a try the next cold morning.
